About

Little Ilford is an electoral ward in the London Borough of Newham, east London. The area is mainly residential, with a mix of Victorian terraces, interwar housing and post‑war council developments forming most streets. The ward takes its name from the historic parish of Little Ilford, once distinct from Great Ilford, a legacy that still appears in local place names and older property boundaries. Local streets are punctuated by small parks and community green spaces that serve nearby housing clusters.

Community life centres on local schools, faith centres and small shopping parades that provide everyday services. Council-led facilities and voluntary groups run activities for different age groups, and evening and weekend bus services connect the ward to other parts of Newham. Electoral wards in Newham are used for borough council representation and planning, so Little Ilford’s identity is shaped by both neighbourhood networks and municipal services focused on housing, waste collection and local amenities.
